This decision was based on the coaches own agenda not the teams. His ego could not have taken a loss this early in the season, not to say they would have lost, but they did lose to lebanon last year. This coach is more worried about his own personal detractors more than his teams goals. Winning is easy with talent and pitching, when you learn to respect your players and build teams for the future as well, then you will be considered with best coaches. If seniors quit the team due to lack of respect what will the younger players do. Show your players the respect they have earned and they won't care if you are hard on them at times.
I hope the Hume-Fogg girls have a great season like last year, they deserve the good things that do happen to them.
